Why are there different index base currencies?
There are three base currencies: the US dollar (USD), the euro (EUR) and sterling (GBP). Investors using Currency ETCs would typically take positions using their base currency, i.e. a euro-based investor would look at the EUR indices. The convention followed by the Currency ETCs is for the base currency to be the second named currency in any pair.
